Val - The guru of a few of us here, Caroline Hirons, recommends using the acid toners then following with a spritz of a hydrating toner, to maximise hydration. I am using either IBST or Darphin Intral, but also found BS Aloe very good, so you may want to hold back on finishing your IBST and try her system. The two types of toner do different, but complimentary jobs IYSWIM:) Neither type are like the old fashioned "pore closing" toners.

Maddiemay I have been following this regime probably for a week and my skin does feel cleaner due to this. Thanks. Emma's skin is looking so much better too since using the Murad system . Not clear yet but the spots look less angry. Hurrah.

That is good news for you and Emma. Pleased about the Nails Inc polish too, I remember when you said that your fave was almost finished:(, I searched for a dupe for you, but didn't come up with anything:(

I seem to have really itchy skin ATM, both on face and hands, if it persists I will try some anti-histamine, am trying to remember to use more of the gallons of hand cream that I have dotted about the house, no excuses at all, just a rubbish memory!

I now. I kept seeing photos of polishes but it was different to gauge cos in some light they looked either too grey or too teal. I nearly ordered a bottle of Zoys Genevieve recently.

One In to report:

Barbara Daly Even Smoother Eye Base - I don't feel too bad about this because it's a new category for me. I had never even heard of eyeshadow primer till this month.

Evening all, just back from my very belated honeymoon (been married 9 months now). It was lovely although I kept burning which is unusual for me and OH didnt:eek::eek: so have peeley bits now:(
Using lots of moisturiser to try and help fix it. Took loads of bathbombs and didn't have a bath in our room so now have lots of crushed bathbombs..glad I sealed them in plastic bags first!

So I had a couple of INs before I went:

Wilko mini deodorant and dry shampoo

UUs:
Soap and Glory mini sugarcrush body scrub

Hi ladies!
I've neglected posting much this month, sadly it's been a slow month and i've made a really poor effort on the PP list

Sorry to hear you've had a rotten week Gemzie. I hope next week is better for you.

I hope you had a great honeymoon seasideDreamer!

So the UU from PP list for February, i think this will be it for the month.

Olive oil soap with pomegranate.
Katy Perry killer queen perfume 100ml
Clarins tinted moisturiser sample sachet

The other items have only a bit left in them, so i'll roll them over to March.
Other UU:
L'occitane spring cherry soap - this was lovely!

A couple of INs though:

TBS mango body whip 60ml.

6UU and 2INs.

Have a great evening all and see you in March!
